Really?
He told Adam, "Don't eat of this or you'll die."
Sounds like something to me.
Adam would eat of the tree and, well not die
Come on, more of your deception, unless he is hiding out at your place, Adam did, in fact, die.
He made a Universe where there was no other option but for Adam to disobey
This is the opposite of the truth. GOD created a universe with nothing but choices for us.
If I know what I'm doing won't stop something bad from happening, and I know there's something I could do to stop it from happening
Folks have the option of doing something bad or not. To stop folks from doing something bad you would need to rob them of the opportunity to choose something good.
Clearly GOD choose to gift people with the freedom to choose what they believe, yes, knowing some, even many, would make choices contrary to GOD's will. This is the gift of love, freedom to choose. Under this program you are responsible for your own choices, even if your choices are known to GOD.
I don't understand what this has to do with the argument

It includes all available information at hand
Not the truth and not surprisingly so.
Logically, a logical argument must include all relevant information, however, if your position would crumble using all available information then it is logical that you would misrepresent that information in an attempt to maintain the illusion that your position is logical.
